The first vaccines will be administered in Ireland today amid warnings that the third wave of Covid-19 has already led to more hospitalisations than in the entirety of the second wave.
The National Public Health Emergency Team (Nphet) has reported a sharp surge in hospitalisations over the last two days, just as the vaccine rollout programme begins.
